First use of new crane.

Works good so far. Very easy to lift stuff.

Should work great, for removing cab, bed, and moving frame.

Grandson doing lifting

Thanks,
Les

I have the same one from Harbor Freight. I did't like the fact that you could barely fit a truck within the uprights. I went to my local steel vendor and walked there yard for a remnants and found a much thicker 11' beam and some heavy plates to weld to it. Works much better know and has 10' clear and I think I spent about $75.00. Good luck with the new toy. CHIZZLER.

Chizzler,
Sounds like a nice upgrade, will look into finding a longer top I-beam too.
